What's the truth? I have a copy of Jared Diamond's "Guns, Germs, and Steel" but have not read through it yet. Is his conclusive stance, "geographic luck", the answer?
“In short, Europe’s colonization of Africa had nothing to do with differences between European and African peoples themselves, as white racists assume. Rather, it was due to accidents of geography and biogeography—in particular, to the continents’ different areas, axes, and suites of wild plant and animal species. That is, the different historical trajectories of Africa and Europe stem ultimately from differences in real estate.” - Jared Diamond
